The Department is working with a family whose 7-month-old daughter is currently placed out of the home while they address the concerns which caused the case to open. The family is in need of assistance with the purchase of gas for visits, medical appointments, and treatment. They are struggling with this expense due to numerous medical appointments for their baby and case commitments for themselves. These parents are engaged in all aspects of their case, having frequent, extended visits with their baby, and are eager to move their case forward. Any assistance with this need so that parents can continue to work towards reunification is greatly appreciated!

The Department is working with a father whose 1-year-old is currently placed in foster care while he addresses the concerns that caused the case to open. He is currently in need of assistance with the purchase of a queen/full size bed frame and mattress. He is currently sleeping on a small loveseat in a shared living space. The primary company that employs him has switched contracts and laid everyone off, and in the process of processing employees out, checks have been delayed. As a result, he is struggling to afford this purchase. This father is getting engaged in all services, participating in visits, and highly motivated towards a reunification. A used bed is completely acceptable! Any assistance with this need so that this father can continue to focus on his case and bringing his daughter home is greatly appreciated!
